“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18 ESV).
Not everyone will receive a Valentine today. Some have a heart still hurting from a broken relationship. Other hearts have slowly been crushed by a lifetime of loneliness. Yet, everyone who comes to the Lord with a contrite and humble spirit, admitting their broken hearts, will experience His presence and salvation. Acknowledging brokenness precedes wholeness in the Lord. He is near. Cry out to the Lover of your soul, and feel lonely and unloved no longer.
PRAYER: Dear Father, how great is Your love, O Lord. That you loved us even while we were far from You is amazing. We would know more of Your love. Heal our broken hearts and fill us with Your agape love, so that we may love You back with all that we are and love our neighbor as we love ourselves. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
